does anyone know where i can get blackcurrant squash in bc? we are landing in vancouver, and last time i was there we found a "price right foods"( part of save on foods) who seemed to be a chinese franchise, and they had robinsons juice there, but im not sure ill be able to find it again before we go off to prince george.( it was on the flightpath for the airport if anyone knows where it is that'd be great)

hubby had scoured PG and theres nowhere there that does it.
its babys favourite drink. and while he will drink other things, its about the only way to keep him properly hydrated, its the only thing he drinks with gusto!

dont want to bring it with me because its weighty, i will if i have to but trying to reduce likelyhood of massive excess baggage fees.

I have found small (glass) bottles of ribena in some No Frills stores in northern Ontario - don't know it that is any good? You have to look hard for it on the pop aisle. And it is extremely expensive. My children miss squash too

Extra Foods & No frills supermarket does tins of No Name powder that you mix with water that you can get in blackcurrant.

When I was on here the other day an ad popped up on this site for British Corner Shops.co.uk. I don't know what the shipping costs are to Canada, but I used them possibly once or twice a year in France and they were great. They had everything that one might miss. My only real 'need' was Heinz Cream of Tomato, which is the only thing my kid will eat when sick. Good luck.

Loblaws/Superstore - Ribena.

Save on or Price Smart are not a 'Chinese Franchise', not a franchise at all, they are part of the Pattison Group.

You can get crystal lights from costco or superstore. It is sachets of fkavouring, including blackcurrant that you add to water. Sugar free and tastes like squash

Squash, or similar equivalent is readily available in BC: http://nationalimporters.com/item.as...temNbr=2136091

sorry i didnt mean to offend, what i mean by a chinese store is one you can buy a lot of chinesey type things in, the other save ons that we used were regular supermarket type layouts like you get in the uk, this one price smart in vancouver tho was about 80% oriental inspired and very little normal supermarket stuff ( which was great cos it had squash) i wasnt being derogatory, and apologise for any offence caused.

you can get ribena at real canadian superstore thats cool, ill send hubby out to get some so he has it ready - thanks again guys

They keep it in the Asian Foods aisle where we are.
